Saved by the Bell

Time out.

Without direct side by side comparison, it's really hard to tell this apart from the original show that ended more than 20 years ago. How did The Tonight Show get a time machine and why are they hiding this technology from the rest of us?

Feminism is for Everybody!

"When [hooks'] stinging clarity meets the banal familiarity of Saved by the Bell, the juxtaposition can be a bit jarring. And I love that; the insistence that scholarship interact with something so absentmindedly consumed by our younger selves."

Saved by the Bell is old enough to drink.

Did you know that tomorrow, August 20th, is the 25th anniversary of the airing of the first episode of Saved by the Bell? Once you assimilate that into your worldfiew (I'll give you a minute) assuage your sudden brush with mortality by entering our giveaway to get some awesome Saved by the Bell clothing!

This Labor Day, Lifetime gives birth to a bedazzled turd.

I'll admit I'm not well versed in the ways of Bayside High (talk to me about YTV's Big Wolf on Campus. Now that was my high school jam), but coupled with that bonkers trailer we got earlier this month, it's a safe bet Lifetime's "unauthorized" Saved by the Bell movie is going to be awful. And by awful, I obviously mean great. Not even Bell Biv DeVoe can save this now.

Arya for Team Zack!

In the latest Teens React vid from The Fine Brothers, Game of Thrones' Maisie Williams and some other, non-famous teens (but don't worry, we still like your shirt, peacock dude) react to that bastion of '90s civilization: Saved by the Bell. They're so excited! They're so excited! They're so scared!

We'll just have to go on an Open World quest for all of them now, right?

The dream of the '90s isn't just alive in Portland anymore, okay guys? It's also flourishing over at Von Trash Jewelry, where you can buy expertly crafted homages to your favorite 20-year-old video games, movies, and TV shows. Aw man, and I just got the Hey Arnold! theme song out of my head from when I used to watch it as a kid! It's gonna be in there for another 18 years, now!

Our Adorable Past

Back in July of last year we brought you the surprising news of Lion Forge Comics picking up the licenses for Airwolf, Knight Rider, Miami Vice, Punky Brewster, and Saved by the Bell from NBCUniversal. Well their all-ages imprint, ROAR Comics, launched Saved by the Bell and Punky Brewster as digital comics today. According to the press release, "Both comics are penned by Joelle Sellner, who is also known for writing Teen Titans, Ben 10 and The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, as well as Lion Forge Comics’ original title, Wonderous: The Adventures of Claire Sinclair." Chynna Clugston Flores and Lesley Vamos are on art duty. Check out two more covers...

Maybe we should have kept watching after Bill Nye left?

We'll admit that when our friend Bill Nye left Dancing With the Stars so did any interest we had in watching it, but maybe we should have stuck with the show. Last night Elizabeth Berkley relived her Saved by the Bell meltdown, and that makes us really happy. Watch it right here.
